B52 bombers on high alert

This morning the news was out that Trump placed the B 52 bombers (also nuclear) on high alert. (fox news). The statement was promptly retreated.

The fact is that B52 are already in Guam and not really sitting ducks. My take is that the “gaffe” it is a way of messaging Kim that time to play is ending fast.

My worry is that Trump is now quite silent, but, behind the scenes, there is a consensus building between the generals, the CIA and some congressmen that a confrontation with North Korea is unavoidable.

And if really the US want a non nuclear North Korea there is no other choice as North Korea will never stop their nuclear program unless the US leaves South Korea.
